FURIOUS SEVEN REVIEW

After the tragic loss of one of my favorite actors Paul Walker, the team behind the Fast and the Furious franchise had to scramble to change the ending of the latest movie. Along with Walker,
Furious 7 stars Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, Ludachris, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez,  Jordana Brewster, Kurt Russell, Natalie Ethamuel, Djimon Hounsou, Lucas Black, Elsa Pataky, and Tony Jaa. I was very excited for this movie, and I was not let down. Here's the story.

Furious 7 takes place 1 week after the events of Fast and the Furious 6. Deckard Shaw ( Statham) the older brother of Furious 6's baddie played by Luke Evans, wants revenge on Dominic Torrento (Diesel) and his team, because they dared to try and take out his brother. After the assasination of the much loved Han in Furious 6, ( played by Sung Kang) Shaw targets Dom in a very personal way.  Dom wants to protect his team, but wants to find Shaw, because as he likes to say, " You don't mess with Family."  When Mr. Nobody, a government agent played by Kurt Russell, brings Dom and the team in on an operation that will retrieve a computer device that will find Shaw where ever he is, Dom agrees and the teams get moving.

The movie is terrific, but its not remotely plausable in many many ways. But I didn't care. It breaks the laws of Physics unapologetically.
Other than that, the action, sound, cinematography, and editing is great. Its a very entertaining action movie that anyone could love. The actors and director know what they are doing. And in the spirit of that, they pay tribute to Walker in an incredibly fitting and moving way. I know I was not the only one who teared up in the end.

THE VERDICT

Furious Seven may have plot holes, but its action and story kept me entertained the whole way through and it has a great tribute to Paul Walker at the end.  I give Furious 7 an A-.
